Positive Mindset and Time Management

 Positive Mindset and Time Management

-Dr. Lalit Kumar Setia* 

"It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up". -Vince Lombardi

A person's success and happiness totally depend upon his Attitude. The attitude can be improved and made positive, that will be the ultimate way to remove all the worries of life.

It's rightly said,

"तेरा दौड़ में अव्वल आना जरूरी नहीं,

 तू सबको पीछे छोड़ दे यह भी जरूरी नहीं ! 

जरूरी है तेरा दौड़ में शामिल होना

जो आज तेरे आगे हैं ,वो कल तेरे पीछे होंगे !!

बस तू चलना मत छोड़ना...

बस तू लड़ना मत छोड़ना।"

How to stay positive? 

One should not take seriously the times he becomes failed but one should remember and be inspired always from the times he succeeded. There are plenty of articles on determinants of success. Shiv Khera in his book; describes success as a point from which another higher point of growth becomes visible. Soft skills also contribute to achieving success and core knowledge of any specific subject also constitutes the ability to achieve success. But it is also the fact that even after acquiring knowledge and soft skills; persons remained unsuccessful in life and not much known for their contribution. 

Understanding success and trying to achieve is basically the process of unlocking the hidden potential through a journey of self-discovery through SWOT Analysis.  It becomes easy to discover the power of 'mindfulness' with the help of meditation programs. In the age of cut-throat competition, the corporate officers participate in various stress management courses to get relaxed from official overload. 

While we cannot change the external environment, we can change how we react to it with mindfulness. 

The question becomes unanswered that what is most important for achieving success. If we are provided with three elements of Success to compare i.e. Ability, Motivation, and Attitude then which one is most important?

After having a discussion in my class what I realized is - "Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it."

Ability adds the capacity of an individual and whether he will use the ability or not that depends upon motivation. Some persons are self-motivated and some are tried to be motivated. Once a person is motivated, further how well he uses his abilities depends upon his attitude. No doubt, each element matters but without attitude; the success becomes incomplete.

 Time Management and Success:

One should target accomplishment of goals, bringing of positivity, encashment of big opportunities, and self-improvements to have success in life. If the vision of a person becomes clear and high, he or she always moves in the right direction to achieve it. Each action leads to contribution in achievement of the overall aim and one should not go beyond the aim; however if required the skills should be sharpened at regular intervals to be more capable of achieving the aim.

Adopt Good Habits and Leave Vices:

जब तक हम किसी भी काम को करने की कोशिश नही करते हैं, जब तक हमे वो काम नामुमकिन ही लगता है। There are 6 basic thumb rules to adopt in life:

कामयाबी इन 6 चीजों की डिमांड करती है.

1) हद से ज्यादा मेहनत - Work harder

2) बुरी आदतों का त्याग करना - Leave Vices

3) संघर्ष करने की हिम्मत - Courage to outperform

4) अपने काम पर विश्वास करो  - Self Confidence

5) धैर्य रखने की काबिलियत - Capability for patience

6) अपने काम के प्रति जुनून - Committed to work

किसी की दो चार बातों से गुमराह मत हो जाना, अपने लक्ष्य से भटक मत जाना . Never listen the people with negative attitude.

Negative Attitude makes Lazy:

Be confident, if you have determined to achieve big dreams, definitely you will find the ways and if you have decided to do nothing in life, then also you will find numerous excuses to avoid the work. 

 विश्वास  रखिये... 

अगर  आप  जिंदगी  में वाक़ई  कुछ  अच्छा  और  बढ़ा  कार्य करना  चाहते  हैं  तो  निश्चित  ही  आपको सही  रास्ता  मिलेगा  ही...!
और  अगर  आपने  कुछ  भी  न  करने  का ठान  ही  लिया  है... तब  तो  आपके पास  'बहानों'  की  कोई  कमी  नहीं  होगी!
